    B 20 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 21 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 22 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E 23 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Let six consecutive even numbers be 'a', (a + 2), (a + 4), (a + 6), (a + 8) and (a + 10), respectively.

    ATQ,

    a + a + 2 + a + 4 + a + 6 + a + 8 + a + 10 = 21 X 6

    Or, 6a = 126 - 30

    So, 'a' = (96 / 6) = 16

    So, 2nd term of series 'T4' = 16 + 3 = 19

    So, series 'T4' = 17, 19, 21, 23, 25

    Therefore, required average = (17 + 19 + 21 + 23 + 25) ├╖ 5 = 21
